• Parent Cell Line: Not Specified (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: Not Specified

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Null/knockout)
• Mutations: Insertion, Intragenic deletion
• Mutation details: A targeting vector was designed to replace the 46 nucleotides encoding alpha-helix 12 that contains the AF-2 AD core with 3 stop codons, thereby creating a protein truncated at amino acid 502. Northern blot demonstrated expression of a truncated mRNA. (J:101966)
